Abstract

Many people find scientific publishing is immune to fraud, but unfortunately this is not true. This paper reports some cases of scientific fraud detected in Brazil. It has to be pointed out that there is no crisis of ethics in Brazilian science, but since cases of misconduct have been reported, the Brazilian National Council of Scientific and Technological Development formed on March 27th 2012 a Commission for Integrity in Scientific Activity. It is therefore expected that procedures for prevention and punishment of fraudulent activity in science are discussed in Brazil more openly.

Scientific fraud integrity in scientific activity ethics.
